"A Season Of Change" by Lynette Sowell

Amish widower Jacob Miller believes it was a mistake to visit the Amish village of Pinecraft for winter vacation, especially after his daughter is struck by a car. Stranded in Sarasota until his daughter recovers, Jacob grows increasingly wary of events that unfold in his unfamiliar surroundings—including the strange curiosity of Englischer Natalie Bennett.

Natalie never thought her circus career as an aerial silks artist would end with a blown-out knee at the age of 25. She also never knew her late mother had a secret—that she was once Amish.

When Natalie meets the Millers at the Sarasota hospital, she is attracted to their warm hospitality and simple ways—and soon wonders if they can help her find her mother’s family. As Jacob and Natalie fall in love, their worlds collide. Will their differences tear them apart? Or will their love be strong enough to blend their clashing cultures?Author Info: Lynette Sowell is the award-winning author of twenty titles for Barbour, Heartsong Presents, and Abingdon Press.

My Review: "A Season Of Change" by Lynette Sowell is a really really good book.

"A Season Of Change" by Lynette Sowell kept me turning the pages to see if Englischer Natalie Bennett and Amish widower Jacob Miller could somehow overcome their different worlds and be a couple. The attraction was there from the begining.

"A Season Of Change" by Lynette Sowell is the first book in the "Seasons in Pinecraft" series. Jacob Miller and his children are on vacation in the village of Pinecraft in Sarasota, Florida,a real place. While there an accident happens that puts Jacob's daughter in the hospital and there they meet Natalie who is a teacher for circus performers.But Natalie learns that her mom has kept a secret from her. It is this secret that changes Natalie's life.This book has many life lessons that we can learn, like how is the two sides of a coin like God? If you want to know you have to read the book. Have I convinced you to read it yet?This book has characters that you want to hug, and characters you want to yell at. It has you questioning some things and makes you think am I like this or would I do it the same way that the character in the story did?I have to admit that I am happy the story ended the way I did but I honestly didn't see it ending that way but it was a perfect ending!This book was a book that was chosen for an online book chat and the book was brought more alive and personalized because the author Lynette Sowell joined the discussion.

I was given a copy of this book for an honest review by Abingdon Press . I have given"A Season Of Change" by Lynette Sowell five stars.
